Some pretty neat stuff shown for MU I think.  Again, I'm trying to decide how to continue, as I know I'll get sucked into some Legends stuff when that returns.  I'll probably continue to pick and choose, at least until Legends returns in force next year.  I really do think that this line has improved tremendously since its initial waves in the first year.

I wish the other Sentinel was going to be the one seeing the main stream release  :P

other than that I loved everything shown - one of everything for me except the repaints of Doom, Ultron, and maybe a pass on the Wolvie/Sabertooth set.

Marvel Legends BAF sentinel is still the best!  Proper color scheme and everything.

I'm pretty psyched for most of what they showed at Toy Fair and in their presentation.

In related news, I scored the Daredevil, Ms. Marvel, Warpath, and Vision variants today between two local Targets.

Like the look of the Reed and Sue Richards as well as the Sliver Samurai/Wolverine pack.

Deadpool figure looks not that different from the Wolverine film line figure?

That was the impression I had too, but since I scored my Deadpool for about $3 I'm not too concerned about having a duplicate.

As much as I like this line, I think I'm going to end up selling what I have.  With all the new SW stuff coming out, and Hasbro raising the prices on just about everything, I can't even justify buying the random characters from this line anymore.  Even though I've stuck to my initial mandate of only buying X-Men related stuff, the rabbit hole is just far too deep.   :-\

Well I just bit the bullet on ebay for the Thanos wave.  Didn't really want the Iron Man or the Dark Hawkeye all that much, but I was able to get all five for $60 shipped which is only $4 more than retail here with tax.  Hopefully I can find someone locally to take the Hawkeye and IM figs.  

Oh and I got the yellow DD and Silver (white?) Surfer from Justin.  Thanks.  :)

Found the World War Hulk wave at a local grocery store today for roughly $7 each... I passed for now but I'll probably go back in a few days and snag them. Kind of sad that the local grocery store chain has a better selection AND more figures than the "Big 3"

Yeah, new MU figures are pretty much non-existant at retail here as well.  Target especially has been sitting on the same figures for a long time now, and our local WM doesn't even carry MU right now (they typically get rid of them around "summer movie time").  I'm guessing they'll focus more on Cap, Thor, GL, and probably Iron Man/Spidey as well.  TRU has had the same wall of Iron Men and House of M Spideys for awhile too, probably have to order anything I want online.
